This is a thorough revision of a book on knee ligament surgery. This book is a guide to the diagnosis and treatment of cruciate ligament injuries and has been completely updated with recent data from the past six years. Many new chapters have been added and there is expanded coverage of the patella and arthroscopic surgery, and MRI. Topics receiving special attention include revision ACL surgery and complex reconstruction. The second edition features a core curriculum of knowledge for the general care of the knee as well as specific application to surgical practice. It also features a unique case-study approach, presenting clear and concise information which will be useful to both the practitioner and the student. No other textbook in this field uses this case study approach or emphasizes the integration of surgical treatment with the appropriate, rehabilitation format.
